I recently finished a UX UI bootcamp by Ironhack The only extravagant thing about the bootcamp is the price tag The bootcamp DOES NOT prepare you for the work of a UX Designer - in fact only after the bootcamp through tedious self-study I was able to learn basic things such as autolayout in Figma The career services are an absolute joke - the career week is nothing but a waste of time and the coaches are not really specialised in their respective fields It does not help me to have a career coach who does not know what to look for in a portfolio or who does not know that Figma-pdfs are not ATS-friendly For this valuable information I had to turn to ADP-list coaches Thinking about the structure of the company it is no wonder Ironhack primarily seems to hire past students as teaching- and learning assistants I don t mean experienced UX designers who want to give back but people who apart from the bootcamp have no experience whatsoever in the field Not only wouldn t I recommend you to attend the bootcamp I would actively recommend to look for a different one There are many options on the market with better structure better prices and better networking opportunities I genuinely regret paying for this

save your time and money awful crew You are just a check to them and they are disrespectful

I share the same experience with the last reviews below they just here for your money I had a horrible experience the teacher from Serbia miss S D was Horrible to me yelled at some of her non favorite students I basically had no support and learned everything alone And talking about follow ups with the career hack let me laugh they don t help you at all It s been over a quite some time now since I graduated and apparently I was one of the best students from what they saying well let me tell you if u do a reconversion and you over 40yo it is a struggle to get a junior position anywhere A waste of 8000 waste of time I felt bullied and humiliated they don t teach they read slides If the teacher and her team don t like you well guess what you pay the hard price I am very very disappointed runaway they just want to take your money and they not willing to do any good If u are 20 ish max 30 yo you might get a chance but most of the one of my age we struggle and never found jobs in the industry I have to restart all over my reconversion

This company should stop with their

This company should stop with their false promising ad s on Instagram telling people they can get a job easily after the Bootcamp The Bootcamp itself was very very though but you learn a lot the career hack service is just trash I was lucky to get into the programm with the Bildungsgutschein in Germany that means the goverment payed for the bootcamp with the intention to help me to find a job faster I m a Junior Graphic Designer and graduated 6months ago I applied for 190jobs and did one volunteering project for 2months and a freelancing part-time job for 43hours I only had 2 interviews in that time and both of them had nothing to do with UX UI I feel like I completely wasted my time with the bootcamp The reality is that atm the UX UI market is completely oversaturrated and Ironhack keep sending students out to the market keeping them from the reality Everything is sunshine and roses and after the bootcamp the hard reality hits your face If you decide to do the bootcamp get yourself a personal Mentor or Coach who helps you to find a job and be aware about the current situation on the job market r n If you are from a completely different field don t fall for the rainbow posts on Instagram And yes I m still unemployed

Big price tag 0 opportunities

While the teaching staff did their best the company over-hyped the possibilities of getting hired after the conclusion of your bootcamp While they do make it clear that a job is not guaranteed at the same time they say that most of their students find a job within 3-6 months if you follow their guidance As an outsider to the tech world I placed my trust in Ironhack and gave them my hard earned money little free time Unfortunately the reality is not what they make it out to be Out of a class of approx 20 students only a few have found a job and these had previous coding experience The rest of us are barely getting any interviews whatsoever All in all you will pay 7 5k for something you can learn for free on YT and other free platforms This feels like a legal scam

I applied for the Data Analytics

I applied for the Data Analytics program in Mexico The project manager bullied me to withdraw my application and ask for a reimbursement Even though the program was advertised as a course for beginners I was told I won t get the credential because I am a beginner so I should withdraw my application even before the course started I told them I would study hard they told me it doesn t matter I was told the reimbursement would take max 60 days Today they told me I might not even get my money back within 60 days I am on day 35 I don t post negative reviews but I don t know what else to do to help myself I lost my job 3 months ago and this was supposed to be a new beginning instead it is everything but that

Company is a scam

Company is a scam Charge around 8k for a course but after course had complete you are on your own Career team ignores emails on purpose The whole company is a fraudulent from the teachers to the higher management I wouldn t recommend this to anyone unless your rich and don t care about the money go ahead

I am really disappointed

I am really disappointed I asked for info and an interview Bordeaux Ironhack bootcamp and they gave me the appointment after 2 weeks then changed 4 times the appointment The day of appointment I thought that as all bootcamps send you a link for interview but they just called me by phone with 1 hour and 30 late Sorry but I prefer more serious bootcamp

Total scam

Total scam Any education and new skills resulted from my own external mentors and resources Avoid and do not become a victim like me My computer eroded during the course and there are zero educators

Way too expensive for offering very little value inexperienced teachers

It s interesting how there are mostly 1 star experiences and the word scam being used in reviews and a sudden wave of 5 star reviews is following nothing in between maybe mployees will now post 4 star reviews Ironhack are in my view omitting information to get you to sign up UX UI design course teachers had no relevant work experience So called career week was the biggest scam Many in our course have been complaining only to be gaslighted about it You are expected to work for course way more then 8 hours a day though and get extensive tasks over weekend Not sure what the point of this is
